PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS <br />A. During the term of this Funding Contract, in accordance with WPP, Task 3, Parties will <br />oversee installation of functioning Non -Point Source ("NPS") pollutant control <br />technologies which will educate the public concerning the pollution reduction benefits of <br />management measures, low impact development ("LID"), and green infrastructure. BMPs <br />will also serve as pilots to determine accurate NPS reductions. Informational signage at <br />each BMP will include information about the watershed, NPS, water quality threats, city <br />efforts and resources for the general public to explore LID, green infrastructure, and <br />watershed stewardship activities. <br />B. The COSM will faithfully comply with WPP, Subtasks 3.1 and 3.3, as described below. <br />(1) Subtask 3.1 requires that the COSM will retrofit a site that receives significant <br />stormwater runoff in or near downtown San Marcos. The site will be selected from an <br />approved list of WPP proposed projects for retrofits using LID design criteria. <br />Minimum criteria for demonstration projects include: significant pollution loadings <br />from stormwater, excellent visibility and accessibility, and a drainage area of at least <br />three acres. Potential pollution mitigation/ management must be equivalent to or <br />greater than 80% removal of total suspended solids (TSS) (approximately 2,000 <br />pounds (Ibs) of TSS per year), five lbs. of total phosphorus (TP) per year, and removal <br />of levels of bacteria consistent with the TSS management requirements and WPP <br />specified water quality targets. <br />The COSM, in coordination with project partners, as well as, the stakeholder <br />committee will assess the potential sites and BMPs to ensure that minimum criteria <br />for pollutant removal will be met (using existing WPP and WQPP information and the <br />TCEQ Edwards Aquifer Technical Guidance Manual on Best Management Practices <br />information to calculate pollution removal, as well as calculations provided in the WPP <br />and WQPP). BMP selection methodology will be written in a report to be submitted <br />to TCEQ for review and approval. A BMP Design Report will also be submitted to <br />TCEQ. <br />(2) Subtask 3.3 requires that the COSM will secure subcontractor(s) to retrofit the BMP <br />designed in Subtasks 3.1. Progress will be reported quarterly. Documentation of BMP <br />completion will be submitted to TCEQ, including photo documentation. BMP Post - <br />Construction Reports including estimated site/area pollutant loadings, a photo <br />documentation of signage installation will be provided, and BMP load reductions <br />report will be submitted. Descriptive signage will be installed at each site. <br />Page 2 of 10 <br />
